  • This is a pointless exercise. I guess you must be at least 70-80 or 90% done in your optional if not 100, you can easily improve upon it for this year. Why start a fresh optional from 0%? Btw what optional you think you"re gonna choose for this year :| All optionals are getting mixed treatment these days. You think your optional got butchered this year who knows the optional you switch to now might get butchered next year? So i think it is more about the hard work that you're putting into. Moreover, you will have ample of time left to improve your GS scores if you don't start a fresh optional.
  • geography to sociology
  • Bhai matlb kuwa s khai m kud padoge...sm are going from socio to geo...whats the point? If you are taking such a drastic step, why not go for literature like sanskrit or anthro... Sanskrit lit has given excellent results this time...or if from iit/nit go for engg/maths...

    dude anthro has performed well. i would say avoid Geo,socio, history, philo if you are changing optionals. these papers are giving below par results, many interview appeared guys have been kicked out this time in socio and history.

    yup bro, you are right, but look the guy is jumping from anthro to geo...its like a suicide...first of all if one is going for an optional change, why should one go for geo/socio/history, the results are pretty evident now. i know 3 guys in my friend circle who switched from geo to antho after mains marksheets were out. 2 of them cleared mains..by studying that optional for 3 months, infact their gs prep was hampered, still they made it. all 3 are from general, so this optional has worked for sure...
